In the past month there has been a lot of publicity surrounding the closure of The St Augustine Humane Society, due to the lack of funds to maintain the thousands of animals pouring in there yearly. The St Augustine Humane Society of St Augustine, FL is definitely closing at the end of the month. Today, the article in St. Augustine Record states:

"Humane Society Director Cindy Bishop (at left kissing a gray striped tabby) is working to adopt out the nearly 200 animals at the shelter. She said she plans to call rescue groups in the area, and she is researching the possibility of transporting animals to Humane Societies in surrounding counties."

If you have been thinking about adopting a pet, now is the time. Please tell everyone you know. We have 3 shelter rescue cats as pets, and they are such wonderful friends!

Right now they have REDUCED ADOPTION FEES! Hours: Open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday through Oct. 31

Fees:
Reduced adoption fee of $40 for cats and dogs: incudes neutering, shots, microchip.

Please stop by the Florida East Coast Humane Society at 1665 Old Moultrie Road before October 31, 2008. They are closed Sundays and Mondays. Here are their hours and phone number:

Tuesday thru Friday 10 to 6
Saturday 10 to 5
